I did not say “read more” in the text… do you mean in the video. If so, I’m referring to the reference section in this post. If you look below the video, there are links to the source of this information, that has more detail. The videos are design to be short awareness news, but the detail is usually in those references.

He’s referring to the email we receive from [email protected]. This one had the subject: Secplicity Weekly Roundup – Verizon Pin Leak – Daily Security Byte. It lists a bunch of news stories in a column. At the bottom of each story is says “Read More – ” followed by the link to the video or article in red.
I think he meant to suggest that maybe “Learn More” would be a good option since many of them lead to the Security Byte videos.
